Customer Rating:
Summary: Helpful insight to anyone with depression
Comment: Though this sometimes gets quite clinical, the patient examples bring home much insight on how your brain functions... and helps you to function. I would recommend this for anyone who battles with depression / ocd or any other function of 'normal' daily life that they struggle to control.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Everyone Should Read This Book - Young or Old
Comment: Once you start reading this book, you won't be able to put it down. You will read and re-read it. It makes alot of sense and goes deep into the brain. It's graphic in a sense that explains what we do to our brains in a physical manner. I liked that it showed a normal brain and a brain that has been abused by "substance abuse". It just goes to show that people don't realize that what they put in their body affects the brain itself but by seeing a true picture, it makes you want to stop and think.

Summary: Understanding
Comment: "Change Your Brain Change Your Life" offers understanding about our brain from a perspective that is unique.
You gain understanding at an intellectual and emotional level. Intellectually, you gain insights into mental conditions ranging from depression, anxiety to attention deficit disorder. Emotionally, you are better equipped to understand individuals suffering from mental illness.
You become more tolerant and less judgmental if you or someone around you is going through challenges because of the way your or their mind functions.
This is an absolutely fantastic book, which is better read with "Nexus: A Neo Novel." Nexus by Deborah Morrison and Arvind Singh is a must-read about people overcoming psychological barriers at a retreat. It offers a hard-hitting experiential journey into people's lives and gives inspiration that by doing something instead of staying stuck, we can transform our lives.
